"THE YANKEES SUCKED TODAY"

I didn't get to see much of the game today, but what I did see, I didn't like. As I was listening to the news in the car this evening, sports came on 1010 WINS and the man said, "The Yankees lost" and just went into the news cycle. I looked at my wife, "Why don't they just say 'the Yankees sucked today'? It would make it more complete." Frustration doesn't even begin to tell you how annoyed I am at this entire Oakland series. We are now tied with the Rays for first because of our lousy play, and while that's not a big deal in May... it just annoys me... like I know it annoys you. What's worse... they didn't even score a run today. You gotta be kidding me.

The Yankees left 7 men on base today. They were 0-5 with runners in scoring position, and worst of all, they scored ZERO runs. Jesse Chavez man-handled them... and that's the story here. There is nothing else.

Sure, let's look at the Yankees pitching, but it doesn't make much of a difference. Adam Warren went 7 innings, gave up 6 hits and 2 runs. The other run was given up by Esmil Rogers. The pitching was decent. 3 runs is a hole the Yankees could definitely dig out of... they just didn't.
